The September Crazy in Needlepoint



I worked hard today, and finished all the patches - ready to do the seam treatments, and then tomorrow the silk ribbon asters. These will have to wait, as I would probably make a mess due to tired fingers and sore eyes! I already see a place where I failed to leave an open stitch for a bead - but this is crazy quilt, after all. I can cover any boo-boos with a bit of embroidery! (I have tried to make this post format correctly - but apparently this won't happen tonight - sorry!)

Judy, what do you call the stitch you use for the blue top left side of the heart? I used it on my goldfish piece recently but can't find it anywhere in my books. I think we have to call it Judy's Cashmere Variation....

I love the areas formed in this heart. Is this an original design? Looking forward to the finished Opal.
